GASK – Gallery of the Central Bohemian Region

The Gallery of the Central Bohemian Region, also known as GASK, focuses on modern and contemporary art. It hosts rotating exhibitions, presents a permanent display of its gallery collection, organizes a variety of educational and cultural events, and also provides extensive facilities for conferences.

The art gallery focuses on 20th and 21st-century visual arts and is found in the old Jesuit College in Kutná Hora. It’s close to the famous St. Barbara’s Church, and there’s a nice garden around it where people can enjoy art outdoors and relax.

• Interesting fact: GASK also provides extensive facilities for researchers or for organizing conferences and symposia. The on-site educational center develops programs and workshops for exhibitions.

Ever thought galleries were mainly for adults and not suitable for a family outing with little ones? Well, GASK breaks that stereotype! When visiting Kutná Hora with young explorers, be sure not to overlook the visual playrooms. Your kids will love the interactive, playful, and vibrant atmosphere. What’s more, you can purchase separate tickets for the playroom, making it easy to return with the kids for more fun.

• Here’s a suggestion for you: Czech design holds a dedicated space at GASK, complementing the presence of the design shop.
